Welcome to HTFT Partnership

Welcome to HTFT Partnership, the premium provider who offer a personalised approach to your ACCA exam success.

We offer a range of courses towards ACCA professional qualifications and we believe our students should not view their study as being separate to the workplace but rather should understand how they will utilise their studies in their day-to-day work and be able to contextualise their studies as being supportive in their development as fully qualified finance professionals.

The HTFT Partnership approach is to ensure the programmes we deliver fits with the busy work times of our clients and supports them in developing as good professionals.

Different students have different learning styles. Our programmes ensure that all learning styles are addressed.

All HTFT students will be encouraged to think for themselves and all tutors will put that into context as part of the approach to achieving the ACCA qualification.

The tutors will endeavour to always go the extra mile to help students learn and pass exams. I was a student from the start and I am proud to say that I have seen HTFT grow and develop into a professional forward thinking college. I would highly recommend HTFT to anyone who wants to experience learning with a difference

Business and Technology

Mastering

We believe that our programmes should fit in with busy work schedules and help develop good professional accountants.

Therefore students need to master their subjects.

A flipped classroom was introduced by the Khan Academy as a proven approach to mastering technical subjects.

Through our flipping classroom, our trainees access pre-recorded videos that they control (they can watch, rewind, pause and fast-forward as needed) prior to attending the masterclass sessions, where ‘in-class’ time is devoted to application of knowledge.

The value of our flipped classroom is both in allowing trainees to watch the recordings and learn at a time and pace that suit them, in addition to repurposing masterclass time into activities where trainees test their skills and apply their knowledge – delivering a full mastering of skills.

ACCA Professional Qualification

ACCA is suitable for those who would like a career in finance, business or accountancy, who wish to become a Chartered Certified Accountant.

The ACCA Professional Qualification comprises 3 distinct levels: Applied Knowledge, Applied Skills and Strategic Professional

The Applied Knowledge level comprises 3 exams: Business and Technology (BT); Management Accounting (MA); and Financial Accounting (FA) – see page 3 (ACCA Diploma in Accounting and Business)

Students who have completed AAT Level 4 are exempt from these 3 exams, and start at the Applied Skills level.

On completing the Applied Knowledge exams along with the Foundations in Professionalism ethics module student gain the ACCA Diploma in Accounting and Business qualification.

The Applied Skills level comprises 6 exams: Corporate and Business Law (LW); Performance Management (PM); Taxation (TX); Financial Reporting (FR); Audit and Assurance (AA); and Financial Management (FM).

On completing the Applied Skills exams along with the ACCA Ethics and Professional Skills module student gain the ACCA Advanced Diploma in Accounting and Business qualification.

At the Strategic Professional level there are: 2 Essentials exam - Strategic Business Leader (SBL) and Strategic Business Reporting (SBR), and students choose 2 Options exams from: Advanced Financial Management (AFM); Advanced Performance Management (APM); Advanced Taxation (ATX); and Advanced Audit and Assurance (AAA).

It is important to remember that students are only ACCA qualified when they have completed all exams and had their Practical Experience Record (PER) signed off.

When studying ACCA your knowledge and skills will be tested by a combination of Computer Based Exams (CBEs) and written exams.

The BT, MA, FA and LW exams are CBEs that can be sat whenever.

The rest of the Applied Skills exams are CBEs (3 hrs 20 mins) and are a combination of MCQs and Long Form questions. These exams can only be sat in one of the 4 ACCA exam windows of March, June, September and December.

Currently the Strategic Professional exams are written exams that have to be sat in the ACCA exam windows. All exams are 3hr 15mins, apart from SBL which is 4hrs.
